Familiar Boss

Chapter 70 Black's Pit

Su Ke ate and drank enough, packed up the uneaten slices of bread, got up and wanted to go out.

The two small animals, Xiao Hei and Xiao Koala, are very interested in this young dragon, and they have been lying there, watching it slowly learn to walk.

"Xiao Ka, you stay at home and take care of the little chicken. Xiao Hei will go out with me to carry out the mission." Su Ke said, looking at the little Hei and the two who were watching the little young dragon.

"Oh!" Xiao Hei and Xiao Koala responded in unison.

Xiao Hei got up reluctantly, ran over lightly, and climbed onto Su Ke's shoulder.

"Master, what mission are we going to perform?" Xiao Hei asked curiously.

Su Ke opened the curtain, walked out of the shack, and said, "Today, when I went to the tavern to collect the mission reward and buy food for you, I just received a new mission."

"Oh, do you need to go far away? If you go far away, the guy who put the little card doesn't feel very at ease at home, and now there are chicks." Xiao Hei said worriedly.

"I didn't go far, I just went to find Balashman in the blacksmith's shop." Su Ke replied as he walked towards the blacksmith's shop.

Soon Su Ke and Xiao Hei came to the blacksmith's shop. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Balashman busy. Knowing that someone was coming in, they just looked up at Su Ke.

"Su Ke, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you that it will take two days for your sword to be crafted? Are you so anxious? I must create a perfect masterpiece this time, and let the world know the masterpiece of art. !” Balashman said.

"I didn't come to you this time about the sword." Su Ke came directly to Balashman.

Balashman didn't have time to take care of him at all, he was only busy adding firewood to the fire, picking up a few pieces of iron ore to look at, and throwing a few into the big iron furnace.

"You didn't come here for the sword, so what are you here for?" Balashman asked casually.

"I want to buy some horseshoes from you. I wonder if you have them here?" Su Ke directly stated the purpose of his trip.

"Oh, I'm sorry, they were sold out a few days ago. Captain Will of the Vanguard Legion of Windming Fort came to me a few days ago, so he bought them all." Balashman replied bluntly.

Su Ke recalled that Captain Will of the Pioneer Corps of the Fengming Fort Investigation Department had just set out for an expedition, and Su Ke happened to see it on the day of the expedition.

"Is this Captain Will? He should be preparing for the expedition that day, so he bought all the horseshoes." Su Ke thought to himself.

But Su Ke immediately thought of it, just as Will took away all the horseshoes on the front foot, the owner of the grocery store, Braque, released this mercenary mission to collect the horseshoes on the back foot.

"It seems that Blake, a profiteer, is really good at using his brains to make use of such disgusting business opportunities." Su Ke said angrily in his heart.

Knowing that Captain Will was going on an expedition, Brack took away all the horseshoes in the blacksmith shop, and now is the time when the horseshoes are out of stock.

If someone is short of horseshoes, he must first go to the blacksmith shop, and the blacksmith shop must not sell them.

He will find him, and then he can sell it at a high price and make a lot of money.

In order to get more horseshoes from mercenaries, they even release mercenary missions at a low price.

This mercenary task was just a wishful thinking that Brak had in mind, and now Su Ke felt that he knew it was a hole that Brak had dug, but he still had to jump into it.

In order to improve the experience of the magic pet system, Su Ke can only be taken advantage of and give up money. If the task is completed, he may also be met with mocking eyes from Brak.

"Then do you know where there are horseshoes for sale?" Su Ke asked Balashman.

Balashman replied without thinking: "You can go to Black's grocery store and ask, maybe he might have it there."

"It really is like this." This was completely expected by Su Ke, and it really was the owner of the grocery store, Braque, who was making trouble.

"But I don't like that old man, the things he sells are really too expensive!" Su Ke said with a look of contempt and disgust.

When Balashman heard Su Ke's words, even though he was talking about Brak, Balashman sounded as if he was talking about himself, and felt somewhat ashamed.

As a businessman, he is also very greedy sometimes, but Black's greed is blatant, while his own greed is secretly greedy.

"It seems that I have to restrain myself sometimes, and I can't be too disgusting to people like that old guy Braque." Balashman secretly rejoiced that his awakening was timely.

"I need it urgently now, can you make it for me here?" Su Ke looked at the busy Balashman and asked.

Su Ke originally didn't intend to disturb him, so that he could concentrate on building this sword for himself, but he still asked.

"Yes! But I'll make it for you after I forge this sword." Balashman quickly replied.

This answer was exactly what Su Ke expected. He knew that Balashman would definitely give priority to making swords, and then consider doing other things.

"How long will it take?" Su Ke asked.

"After the sword is cast, it will be ready for you on the same day!" Balashman replied briskly.

Saying this kind of words shows that Balasman is very confident.

"Okay, build me 20 horseshoes." Su Ke said.

"Then pay the money first!" Balashman said when he saw that Su Ke decided to let him do it.

"Ah?" Su Ke asked in surprise.

Seeing Su Ke's puzzled expression, Balashman immediately explained: "This is my rule here. If you want to order something from me, you must pay all the money first."

"There is still such a saying? Then why didn't you ask me to pay the money for making this sword for me?" Su Ke was puzzled.

Balashman's tone was calm: "Because this sword incorporates my new wisdom, so I'm not sure whether it will succeed or not, and to what extent? That's why I didn't ask your late father to pay for it."

"And this horseshoe, I often make it, and I am very sure. If you don't pay the money first, I worked hard to make this kind of thing. If you say no, then who can I sell it to?" Ba This was what Lashman had been worried about.

"Okay, how much is it?" Su Ke asked.

"A horseshoe costs 1 gold coin, and 20 yuan is 20 gold coins." Balashman calculated directly.

Su Ke compared the reward for this mercenary mission released by the grocery store owner Brak to only 10 gold coins. Now that he collects it for him, it will cost 20 gold coins, which is double the money.

"It really is a profiteer." Su Ke cursed inwardly.

"20 gold coins, right?" Su Ke took out 20 gold coins from his pocket without any hesitation and threw them beside the iron boiler.

Su Ke thought it best to pay for the sword as well.
